Players in KASHAN heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. M. Contreras increased the lead for KASHAN to 11 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! KASHAN's M.

Safdari put KASHAN ahead 12 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by KASHAN, with 95 percent of the ball.
